YP - The Real Yellow PagesSM - helps you find the right local businesses to meet your specific needs. Search results are sorted by a combination of factors to give you a set of choices in response to your search criteria. These factors are similar to those you might use to determine which business to select from a local Yellow Pages directory, including proximity to where you are searching, expertise in the specific services or products you need, and comprehensive business information to help evaluate a business's suitability for you. “Preferred” listings, or those with featured website buttons, indicate YP advertisers who directly provide information about their businesses to help consumers make more informed buying decisions. YP advertisers receive higher placement in the default ordering of search results and may appear in sponsored listings on the top, side, or bottom of the search results page.

Tips & Advice

How can you find healthy food options at a restaurant?

There are many ways to find and select healthy food options at restaurants. Many menus will clearly identify healthier options, but most are going to be common-sense decisions. Avoid heavy, fatty, fried, or sugary foods, and maybe ask for creamy sauces and salad dressings to be served on the side. Lighter foods, like salads or vegetable dishes, are typically healthy options (depending on what is in them). Talk to your server for healthy options on or off the menu.

Do all restaurants offer specialty food options, like vegan and gluten free?

No, all restaurants do not offer specialty food options. However, as people become more health conscious, many restaurants adapt their menu to accommodate more requests and healthier choices, like gluten-free, dairy-free, and vegan options. No place is required to have those options; it’s really a business decision on the restaurant’s part. Know your options before going in to ensure you have the best possible selection and experience.

Is it generally acceptable to make substitutions when ordering?

This is always a tricky situation. Yes, you can usually make substitutions (unless noted otherwise), within reason. If you have food allergies, talk to your server to get clarity on safe menu items, but don’t be that person that takes 20 minutes to order with 50 questions. Want mashed potatoes instead of salad? No sauce or extra sauce? Need gluten-free options? Of course these are reasonable requests, so make those within reason. Some restaurants will accommodate off-menu items, so ask about those, too.

How to select the right restaurant to fit the occasion

To select the right restaurant for your event , start with the occasion and number of guests and a budget. Having 25 guests will eliminate some places right away, while others might even have party rooms available. Or are you looking for a quiet romantic spot to propose (or break up!)? That will eliminate places geared toward kids and families. You can find any and all options by going online. Make sure to plan as far ahead as possible so you can get a reservation. Some places can be very hard to get into, especially if you have a large party or need special accommodations.

How should you make a wine selection?

You can ask your server or sommelier (the staff wine expert) for recommendations. If you want to be fancy, and who doesn’t, you can pair your wine with your meal. Traditionally, lighter wines like roses or chardonnays pair with lighter fare, like fish or vegetable dishes; and darker reds, like cabernet or merlot, pair with heavier dishes like steaks or chops. The truth is that the right wine for you or your meal is the one you like best. Just don’t put ice in your wine glass, that’s just not cool.

What is the proper amount to tip a server at a restaurant?

Traditionally, in the United States, it has been customary to tip 15 percent for good service and 20 percent for really good service. Of course if the service is awful, you have the option of leaving nothing at all. At most restaurants, tipping is not part of your dining obligation and, therefore, you are free to tip whatever amount you like. Some restaurants factor the tip into the actual bill, especially if you have a large party. Tipping isn’t typically done in many other countries, so know the local customs.

Probably the worse dining experience I have had in many years. Went upstairs to the deck and waited until someone finally sat us at one of the many empty booths. Waitress came after about 30 minutes and took our drink order. After 20 minutes more they tried to give us another table's drinks. 10 minutes or so later, drinks came and she took our food order. After a half hour more or so, 2 salads came, but no soups that had been ordered. Another 20 minutes or so soup came. Mine had set long enough it was only slightly warm and had "congealed" on top. Food came after about another hour and was of mediocre quality. I noticed other patrons received loaves of bread and butter while waiting, although none was ever offered to us. Prices were high and they were "courteous enough" to have added an 18% tip already to my credit card slip when they brought it back, although there were only 4 adults and a couple children who had not ordered anything in the party. I did not see this policy posted anywhere, or on the menu. I was disgusted with the place and paid the bill without argument, although we will never return nor recommend it to anyone. WARNING- STAY AWAY!

Wonderful services, DELICIOUS food, great prices,candle lite environment. Perfect all ways. We had swordfish, absolutely glorious. We are from Atlanta and have had many nice restaurants so this place ranked way up on the list .
